DoTF: Oswald Peraza Logs 4 Hits in ‘Gades Win

Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders

Game 1 (Resumed)

The RailRiders and Bisons had their game suspended last night after three innings. They were trailing 2-0, and they lost their starting center fielder to the big boys in the Bronx. That didn’t stop them, though. They improved to 14-6 after dispatching the Bisons 4-2. (Asterisks denote lines from yesterday.)

• Starting Pitcher: RHP Nick Green*: 2.2 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 1 K, 1 HR
• In Relief: RHP Kyle Barraclough*: 0.1 IP, zeroes, K
• Starting Pitcher/In Relief: RHP Adam Warren: 3.0 IP, zeros, 3 K – 62% of his pitches were strikes…the Yankees’ old reliable is really rounding into form
• In Relief: RHP Braden Bristo: 2.0 IP, zeros, 3 K – 59% of his pitches were strikes
• In Relief: RHP Luis García: 1.0 IP, 1 H, zeroes, 1 K – a nice 69% of his pitches were strikes…nice game for Luis, who has struggled lately

• Power Stroke: SS Hoy Jun Park: 1-4, 1 HR, 2 RBI – his blast gave the RailRiders the lead
• Double Trouble: 2B/LF Andrew Velazquez: 1-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 2 RBI – he tied the game, and scored on Park’s HR…all in the 5th
• Leftovers: Quiet game overall…Zack Zehner and Max McDowell had the other hits…the team had three walks so had some traffic, but was carried by the pitching that allowed just 1 hit and walked zero today

Game 2

The RailRiders swept the double-header and improved to 15-6. They won 3-2 in 7 innings (the first game was 9 because it was suspended yesterday) and pitched a one-hitter. Good stuff.

• In Relief: RHP Sal Romano: 2.0 IP, zeros, 2 K – 80% of his pitches were strikes..machine-like outing
• In Relief: RHP Nick Goody: 1.0 IP, zeros, 2 K – 75% of his pitches were strikes…not a bad outing for the pen overall
• Hitting Star: CF Thomas Milone: 2-3, 1 R, 2 2B – dude is on fire to start the season
• Leftovers: Utterly brutal game otherwise…Socrates Brito had the other Scranton hit…Hoy Jun Park was the only other player to reach base

Double-A Somerset Patriots

Game 1

The Patriots fell to the Fisher Cats 10-8 in an honestly wild first game of the doubleheader. They tied the game down 3 in the bottom of the 9th and came back to tie it again in the 10th inning, but ultimately could not get it done, falling to 14-6 with the loss.

• Starting Pitcher: RHP Glenn Otto: 4.2 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 7 K – 61% of his pitches were strikes…Otto has been solid, but this was a rough night…needed 92 pitches to get into the 5th…retired just 14 of 22 batters faced
• In Relief: RHP Ron Marinaccio: 2.0 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 1 BB, 5 K – 63% of his pitches were strikes
• In Relief: RHP Greg Weissert: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 1 BB, 4 K – 61% of his pitches were strikes

• Dermis Power Threat: 1B Dermis Garcia: 1-4, 2 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI – homered in the first…he is really on a roll right now
• Leftovers: Not a lot to write home about in this one…the Patriots were 6-39 and had more walks than hits in the 11-inning affair…they did have 3 SB, though…Oswaldo Cabrera, Michael Beltre, Isiah Gillam, Max Burt, and Matt Pita had the non-Dermis hits
